Anyone know this idiot?

Just one question? If any one thinks the lorry driver was some how in the wrong then what on earth should the driver have done? All the driver done was drive of in the correct lane at a normal speed when the lights changed, if he had not done so he would have held up all the traffic what else could he have done considering the cyclist was in his blind side and should not have been there?

Can't be holding up the traffic for a few stupid cyclists now can we?

Do you imply that drivers should stop and not go at traffic lights if there are cyclists any where? The cyclists where in the left hand lane for turning left the driver drove forward what else should or indeed could he have done?

What a bunch of Knobbers.

Huh...how do you figure that? he just drove forwards in the correct lane...unlike the cyclists who decided to ride up his inside on a narrowing busy road!

He knew they were there and just kept going. The lorry could have stopped till the cyclists had cleared from the inside. Yes it is a pain to have to wait but killing them is worse. I take it from his comments that the lorry driver is just sick of the cyclists.

Look at where the fella with the camera is when the incident happens! What a set of nobs.

Well if you think that I am defending the cyclists you would be wrong. But killing them just because they are on his bit of the road won't make him sleep better if the worst happened.

So what responsibility do the cyclists have in keeping themselves alive

A lot. You wouldn't get me doing that.

Not me either. Totally ridiculous.

 

[slowmotion]

The cyclist's claim that "we all do that in London" really boils my wee. No, I don't wish to enlist for his jihad to "thin out the herd" by incredibly stupid riding. Idiot.

They weren't on his bit of the road when the lights changed, they were in the left hand turn lane.
